The Corona del Mar High junior varsity girls’ tennis team accomplished something over the weekend that was anything but JV.

The Sea Kings captured the Division II championship against all varsity teams at the California High School Girls’ Tennis Classic in Fresno. The two-day tournament ended Saturday.

Corona del Mar made it to the final before defeating Stockdale High’s varsity team in a thrilling match. The Sea Kings won 48-43 on games, after a 3-3 tie.

Contributing to the victory were Erica Lewis, Jessica Beyer, Kate Duddy, McKenzie Ludlow, Delphine Bioche, Sami Rekoon, Morgan McVey and Kalika Slevcove. The team was coached by Jody Young.

“It was really exciting,” Young said. “We kept on getting the question, ‘This is your JV team?’ ”

In addition to beating Stockdale, one of the top teams in the CIF Central Section, the Sea Kings also took out Bakersfield Christian, one of the top teams in Bakersfield, Friday.

The event was dubbed as the largest high school tournament in the nation with 98 teams spread over four divisions.

The Corona del Mar varsity team nearly made it two for two, but the Sea Kings reached the Division I final before falling to Archbishop Mitty, 4-3.
